The Social Contemplative
What does it mean to be a social contemplative? I love people but recharge my batteries alone. Born on the East Coast, living all my adult life on the West Coast I am a hybrid of cultures. I'm a mom, a singer, a writer, a teacher. And yes I'm ordained, but don't hold that against me. I have a day job as a kinder gentler supernanny enouraging parents and children in their homes and a passion for encouraging people and pastors worldwide. I believe we are more than conquerors and most days there's a smile on my face because I deal with life in real time. I'm a whole lot funnier than this description makes me sound.Lastly, it's important to know I'm a paper and pencil gal in a digital world. I like that about me. I hope it shows.
